Downturn Hits Tech Expo Industry: DigitalLife NYC Canceled

Tough times for Ziff-Davis: It's canceling
DigitalLife, its smaller, New York take on CES, this year. "The
DigitalLife event planned for September 25-28... has been
postponed," the expo now says on its Web site.

"The poor economic conditions have created a very different and
difficult dynamic for us this year and we weren't confident that
we could present a show experience that was consistent with the
successes of prior years. Hopefully a bigger and stronger
DigitalLife will return in 2009. We will make additional
announcements about the future of the show when details are
available."
